Yep, it's not on steam.

and OP don't buy it, it's a mess

You don't need it, it's no way better than the original.

I am playing the original like right now, for the first time.

And it looks really good. Sounds really good too. Moody, gorgeous and dare I say scary.

One tip, reduce the resolution to 1080p or 720p - at anything higher than that the edges are too crisp and it takes away the dreamlike quality in it.

Huh? Played this at 1440p with no issues. Something wrong with your settings maybe.

If you have the original on console it is way better on PC. If you get the remastered on Epic it will have even better textures. There are some things like less fog which some have said breaks the immersion but overall it got a great rating.

If you just buy the Steam version you will be happy.

Bought the Remaster twice and refunded it both times. This remaster is bugged out the wazoo on PC with physics and animation issues. Better stick with the original if you know what's good for you.

Hmm I think I'm going to jump into the original version then. I have the base game and the expansion on Epic.

Currently playing Control on GoG and man that game is amazing so far and I'm all for SCP/like stuff.

Thank you everyone for taking the time to answer me and sorry for the late respone!

I rebought it over a year later thinking the bugs would be fixed but, alas, they weren't.
